But since there are certain abilities and weapons I nearly always have Tommy get before entering the Ocean View apartment building, and replaying the game can make it monotonous to have him get those things, I had him get them for a start- er save game for v.1. Unfortunately, several weapons are replaced early in the main missions: the.357 is replaced in Back Alley Brawl, the M4 in Guardian Angels, and the Minigun in Phnom Penh 86.

I added colors for it to the carcols.dat file in the 1957Colors folder.

I changed the wheel size a bit in the default.ide file in the 1957ChevroletBelAir folder.

Update Jan.5, 2012: I added my Legible Blimp mod.

I perked up the handling of the Hermes a bit for the handling file in the ModdedAndChevyHandling fold- er and made the wheels for it a bit bigger for the default.ide file in the 1957ChevroletBelAir folder.

I moved the Chevy emblem to position it a bit better on the grill of the 57 Chevy mod.

Update Dec.12, 2011: I changed Tommys initial Armor to 169 and made a few changes to the EP vehicles stored in garages.

I chose the colors for EP Oceanics and Sentinels with the Administrative Console.

I recommend using the 57 Chevy mod for the Oceanic, the carcols.dat file in my 1957Colors folder, and picking your favorite 57 colors for the EP Chevys with a Pay n Spray.) Update Dec.2, 2011: I improved the installation instructions.

Update Nov.28, 2011: I improved the accuracy of Coronado Yellow and made Onyx Black a bit lighter.

For the Nov, 2011 update, I changed most of the details and interior colors of the.txd file of the 57 Chevy to the authentic original 57 Chevy examples, added the rest of the 57 Chevy exterior colors to the carcols.dat file in the 1957Colors folder and improved the accuracy of the exterior colors I had before, added a folder of screenshots that show the Chevy in all those colors, and I added a few details to some of the instructions here and there.

Request for help: Thanks to OnePiece for the advice about using Zmodeler, but Im inexperienced with it.

Gta Vc Saved Games Drivers Position So

I could use someones help to change the.dff file to reduce the glare (specular lighting) of the exterior, make the colors for the engine and exhaust pipes more realistic, and to move the dummy for the drivers position so their hands are closer to the steering wheel.

Its too bright--the side that faces a nearby light source looks bleached out.

For example, the side facing the light source in the Hyman Condo at night looks white.

Id like the pale blue of the engineexhaust pipes changed to silverlight gray, the yellow of the engine changed to medium gray, and the black of the engine changed to dark gray.

The dummy for the position of the driver should be moved a bit toward the drivers door so their hands are at the steering wheel.

Less important: - The steering wheelsteering wheel post colors should be able to be deter- mined by a color in the.txd file.

There should be thin horizontal pinstripes of chrome on the off-white sec- tion (that features the Bel Air logo) of each tail fin.

PS: I came up with a 57 dash trim plate of metal with little square black dots on it for the tekstura part of the.txd file, but the game takes a bit of it and expands it in a blurry way, so I couldnt use it and settled for plain silver grey.

I had a similar problem with the way the game renders my depiction of the seats.

Ive enclosed a 1957ChevyDash- Trim.bmp file, 5 x regular size (because Id work on the tekstura file at that size then would reduce it back to regular size), of that section of the tekstura part of the.txd file.

RanxeroX guess about the blurriness: Its probably happening due to the way the textures are being mapped onto the model.

From what youre saying, it sounds like the textures are UV-mapped using tiling to fill the area.

To fix it, it would require loading the model into a 3d editor and changing the mapping to another type and possibly having to create a new texture bitmap that has the full detail that youre after.

This sort of thing opens up another can (or more) of worms though.cuz youd have to import the original, make changes, export the model and then, if you want to release it as part of your mod, get permission from the original creator.

GTW note: thanks again to Klarnetist for giving me persmission to distribute his Chevy mods, and he liked the changes Ive come up with so far.

But hes taken his work files and VC off his computer and isnt modding for it anymore.) Update 4102011: I added a carcols.dat file that lets you use some of the original colors for the 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air.

It also replaces some colors for the Sentinel and adds school bus yellow to the colors for the Bus.

Update 9262010: I added two optional oceanic.txd files after I modded Klarnetists 1957 Chevrolet two door hard top to give it the red and red- speckled black seats of a 57 Chevy.

Gta Vc Saved Games License Plates And

One has 1957 Pennsylvania license plates and the other has 1986 Dade county (the county Miami is in) Florida license plates.

Update 9282010: I modded the Chevy of the two files I modded on 926 to have a red dash, ceiling, etc.

I like Vice City, so I usually dont want parts of it already done for me.

Unfortunately, several weapons are replaced early in the main missions: the.357 is replaced in Back Alley Brawl, the M4 in Guardian Angels, and the Minigun in Phnom Penh 86.
